Oh gosh. I didn't think this was still going on. When I was going through the AOS stage people were getting those all the time, and then they would get denials because they didn't show up for their interviews. What everyone did from then on was to show up for the original interview and they were always accepted. The interviewer wouldn't even know that it had been cancelled. It was apparently a problem with the way the clerks were updating data. Perhaps someone with more recent experience will comment.

I guess I just not that lucky please if anyone has same experience,let me know what's going on.

From a practical standpoint, what are you going to do with any "recent" experience?

Is anything really enough to convince you to take the risk to do anything other than what Krikit said and go to the originally scheduled interview? Is anything some stranger says on the intarwebz enough to make you risk denial based on failure to appear?

Throw out the cancellation letter (or if you can't bring yourself to do that, hide it under the mattress) and go to your interview. If they say no interview for you today, you just play dumb, like the cancellation never arrived.

For some people, it's reassuring to read about other people in similar situations. While none should ever base their final decision on what they read on the Internet, it makes the waiting more bearable knowing that 1. someone went trough the same thing and 2. made it out ok (or not).

Thanks for the advice

Ye..I just want to have some idea how long it will take for another interview from others' experience

My interview was originally scheduled for January 21st 2010 and we got a letter January 19th saying it was cancelled and that we would get a new appointment soon. About 2 weeks later, we got a new appointment letter for February.. so we went to the new interview. No problem whatsoever.. just the minor inconvience of having to take another day off work to make the new appointment. It has nothing to do with you or your case - I was told it was just internal USCIS issues and is not at all uncommon.

As for the person telling you to go to the original interview - I guess that could be worth a shot? For me, I live a 5.5 hour drive from the Jacksonville field office so Im not sure that would have been terribly good advice if I had been turned away. But if your local office is just down the road it might be worth giving it a try just to minimize the wait time for your green card.

Good luck.

Just go for the original interview. Not worth it to chance a denial.
